The story:

Ginés García, known as Ginés el Gitano, led a dual life as both a ruthless gangster and a beloved family man. Despite his fearsome reputation in Barcelona's underworld, he found solace in simple pleasures like enjoying a cold beer in the park while watching his children and grandchildren play.

Starting with humble beginnings as a chimneysweep, Ginés delved into the world of trading various goods, eventually venturing into more dubious activities to grow his illegal empire. His daring bank robbery in 1983 earned him notoriety, as he managed to evade the authorities using his intimate knowledge of Barcelona's rooftops.

As his drug trade flourished, Ginés became one of Catalonia's most prominent figures in organized crime. Despite the constant pursuit by law enforcement, he maintained his grip on power until his eventual arrest in 1988. However, after serving a shortened sentence for good behavior, Ginés disappeared from public view.

The mystery surrounding Ginés' fate deepened when a package containing envelopes and boxes arrived, prompting speculation about his whereabouts. With your help, we aim to uncover the truth behind Ginés' disappearance and unravel the enigma of his final chapter.
